Deliberative Poll About Unemployment and Job Creation in the Area of Kaposvár Deliberative Poll About Unemployment and Job Creation in the Area of Kaposvár May-June 2008 SUMMARY OF THE RESULTS „It would be good to have more of these events, we have learnt a lot” (a participant’s comment – SG 11) Plenary session – participants are listening to the experts Experts at the plenary session – György Nagy, Gábor Tóth, István Vilmos Kovács, Ágnes Hárs Small group discussion 1 Introduction The Institute of Sociology and Social Policy of the Corvinus University of Budapest has conducted a Deliberative Poll® in the summer of 2008 in Kaposvár and its area on the topics of employment and job creation and the European Union and its employment policy. This research is part of the IntUne project which deals with different aspects of European integration one of its objectives being to increase citizen’s participation, to mobilise public opinion. What is IntUne? The IntUne (Integrated and United? A Quest for Citizenship in an Ever Closer Europe) project is financed by the European Union within the 6th Framework Programme on the theme of Citizenship. IntUne is a four year project which started in September 2005. Coordinated by the University of Siena it involves 29 European Institutions and more than 100 scholars across Eastern and Western Europe. Nowadays that the EU is facing several challenges, and that its legitimacy and democratic capacities are often questioned, it is important to address the issue of EU citizenship, whether it exists and how it is emerging. The main objective of this research is to study the changes in the meaning of citizenship as an effect of the process of deepening and enlargement of the European Union. The project aims to analyse how processes of integration and decentralization are affecting the different aspects of citizenship: identity, representation, and the scope of governance. About Deliberative Polling® Deliberative Polling® was conceived by Professor James Fishkin in 19881. The research program since that time has been a collaboration with Professor Robert C. Luskin. Deliberative Polling® is a technique which combines traditional random sampling public opinion polls with deliberation in small group discussions. A number of Deliberative Polls have been conducted in various countries around the world (e.g. Britain, Australia, Denmark, US, etc.) in various themes - some national and some local. The main argument behind this technique is that citizens are often underiformed about key public issues, thus traditional public opinion polls represent the public’s shallow impressions on an issue. The public, according to the theory of "rational ignorance" in social sciences, does not invest time and effort in acquiring information or establishing a grounded opinion. Deliberative Polling® is aiming to use public opinion research in a new way including the possibility of public consultation. A representative sample of people is first polled on the targeted issues. Then, a sub-sample of the original sample is invited to gather at a single place for a weekend in order to discuss the issue. The participants first receive a balanced briefing material prior to this event in order to gain information on the issue and then engage in dialogue with experts and political leaders based on questions they develop in small group discussions with trained moderators. After the event, the sub-sample is again asked the original questions. The resulting changes in opinion represent the conclusions the public would reach, if people had the opportunity to become more informed and more engaged by the issues. 1 Deliberative Polling® is a trade mark of James S. Fishkin. Any fees from the trade mark are used to support research. 2 The Employment Situation in Kaposvár Small Area Kaposvár Small Area is located in Southern Transdanubia in Somogy county. From the 11 small area of the Somogy county Kaposvár small area has the most settlements (54 settlements belong there), despite the fact that in January 2008 23 settlement left the small area and formed the Kadarkut- Nagybajom small area and is working on independently. The centre of the county, Kaposvár is the only town in the small area, the number of habitants is 67,746. The second biggest settlement in population is Taszar with 2,089 habitants. In the small area with a population of 101.309 this way Kaposvár has the two third of habitants. According to sociological researches and a recent poll of the Hungarian Gallup Institute unemployment is the greatest problem in the region. In Hungary 55 % of the population in working age (15-64) work in officially administered jobs. The average in the European Union is 64 %. The region’s activity rate is just slightly below the Hungarian average (54 %). As for unemployment the region’s conditions are worse. The rate of unemployment (according to the ILO standards) was 17 % at the end of the last year whilst the national average was 10 %. In other words Somogy County’s position is the 4th worst in the country in this respect. 1/3rd of the unemployment is lasting more than a year, which is a very unfavourable condition again. After the transition as a function of changing social and economical conditions the labour market changed remarkably. This process manifested in significantly decreasing number of employees and increasing unemployment. The decrease in the number of employees characterised the agriculture to the greatest extent. The decrease was less important in the education, in the health service and in public service. The employment centre of the area is Kaposvár. 80% have their workplace there. In the villages the biggest employer is the local government and there is also some agricultural work. But for the majority of the people Kaposvár is the only opportunity for a job. From the 46 thousand employees in the area 13 thousands work in industry and construction, 30 thousand in the service industries and only 3 thousands in agriculture. The employment rate of the population aged 15 and 64 was 53,7% in the small area and 61,6% in Kaposvár. The unemployment rate (the registered job-seekers at a rate per cent of active age group population) 15,4% in the small area and 9% in Kaposvár. Regarding unemployment the number of registered unemployed in Somogy county was 25 471 in February 2008, 3 464 in Kaposvár. 34% of the registered unemployed were long-term unemployed which means that they were without job for more than 1 year, in Kaposvár this rate was 33%. Details of the research In May 2008 a representative sample of the inhabitants of Kaposvár Small Area has been polled (n=1514) on the themes of employment, job creation and the European Union. The respondents of the survey have been invited to participate to the deliberative weekend. A briefing material, containing information and facts about employment and pros and cons about the possible measures and policies that could facilitate the discussion, has been sent out for all of those 435 persons who were willing to come. At the end 108 persons have participated to the event held at the Kaposvár University on the 21-22 of June 2008. During this weekend the participants have discussed the themes with each other in small groups of 5-10 and with invited experts during plenary sessions. 3 Experts of the plenary sessions: Dr. Adler Judit GKI Economic Research Co.

  • HUNGARY Hungary Is a Republic with a Population of Approximately 10
    HUNGARY Hungary is a republic with a population of approximately 10 million and a multiparty parliamentary democracy. Legislative authority is vested in the unicameral parliament (National Assembly). The National Assembly elects the head of state, the president, every five years. The president appoints a prime minister from the majority party or coalition. The National Assembly elections on April 11 and 25 were assessed as free and fair, with the conservative Fidesz- Christian Democrat (KDNP) coalition winning enough seats in the second round to achieve a two-thirds majority. Fidesz's prime ministerial candidate, Viktor Orban, took office on May 29. Security forces reported to civilian authorities. Human rights problems included police use of excessive force against suspects, particularly Roma; new restrictions on due process; new laws that expanded restrictions on speech and the types of media subject to government regulation; government corruption; societal violence against women and children; sexual harassment of women; and trafficking in persons. Other problems continued, including extremist violence and harsh rhetoric against ethnic and religious minority groups and discrimination against Roma in education, housing, employment, and access to social services. RESPECT FOR HUMAN RIGHTS Section 1 Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom From: a. Arbitrary or Unlawful Deprivation of Life There were no reports that the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings during the year. In December 2009 the Somogy County Military Prosecutor's Office pressed charges against 10 prison guards at the Kaposvar prison for causing the death of a pretrial detainee and physically assaulting nine other inmates in February 2009.

  • Land Reform and the Hungarian Peasantry C. 1700-1848
    Land Reform and the Hungarian Peasantry c. 1700-1848 Robert William Benjamin Gray UCL Thesis submitted for a PhD in History, 2009 1 I, Robert William Benjamin Gray, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 25th September 2009 2 Abstract This thesis examines the nature of lord-peasant relations in the final stages of Hungarian seigneurialism, dating roughly from 1700 to the emancipation of the peasantry in 1848. It investigates how the terms of the peasants’ relations with their lords, especially their obligations and the rights to the land they farmed, were established, both through written law and by customary practice. It also examines how the reforms of this period sought to redefine lord-peasant relations and rights to landed property. Under Maria Theresa land reform had been a means to protect the rural status quo and the livelihood of the peasantry: by the end of the 1840s it had become an integral part of a liberal reform movement aiming at the complete overhaul of Hungary’s ‘feudal’ social and economic system. In this period the status of the peasantry underpinned all attempts at reform. All reforms were claimed to be in the best interests of the peasantry, yet none stemmed from the peasants themselves. Conversely, the peasantry had means to voice their grievances through petitions and recourse to the courts, and took the opportunity provided by the reforms to reassert their rights and renegotiate the terms of their relations to their landlords.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract This Report focuses on the regional competitiveness analysis of Hungary. Eight aspects are taken into consideration, which are Economics, Education and Learning, Innovation, Labor Market Effi- ciency, Infrastructure, Health, Farm, Environment Protection and Crimes. The final results show that Közép-Magyarország (Central Hungary) is the most competitive region which gets 68.46, while Észak Magyaroszág (Northern Hungary) which scored 24.23 is the least competitive region. Cultural and heritage, natural features, higher stage of urban/economic development, R & D sector and high level business services are the main advantages of Közép-Magyarország (Central Hun- gary). However, for the least competitiveness region Észak Magyaroszág (Northern Hungary), more attention should be paid to infrastructure construction, labor mobility, institution efficiency, promotion of innovation, business environment, improvement of education and health and envi- ronment protection. Keywords Regional Competitiveness, Hungary 1. Introduction In economic life and beyond, competition is one of the most fundamental sources of mobilization and creativity and it has immense impact on regional development and growth.
